Mrs. Dawson was relentless, crying out, "Oh honey, I can't make sense of what you're saying!"
Justin rushed in, trying to pry Griffin off Mrs. Dawson. "Dad, let go of Mom, you're going to hurt her!"
Griffin shot a fierce glare at Mr. Cameron and barked at the servants, "Tie up Mr. Cameron for me."
The servants exchanged uneasy glances, then stepped back in unison. That’s when Griffin realized his household had been taken over by his wife and son. The loyal old staff had been slowly replaced by Mrs. Dawson, and the new ones were on her side.
Justin shoved Griffin aside. "Dad, let's talk this out. Don't lay a finger on Mom."
Griffin couldn't match the strength of the young and robust Justin, nor could he outwit the smooth-talking Mrs. Dawson. Defeated, he slumped to the ground, railing at the unhelpful servants. "You ungrateful lot, biting the hand that feeds you. The Dawsons have supported you, and yet you serve outsiders."
Mrs. Dawson and Justin wore smug smiles.
Mrs. Dawson, even more brazenly, added, "Honey, you're getting on in years. Why not just hand the Dawson family to our son and enjoy your golden years?" Her words carried a thinly veiled threat.
Griffin was livid, feeling as if his chest might burst.
John watched the scene unfold, shaking his head at Griffin's helplessness. Finally, he clapped his hands, and in stormed a squad of bodyguards in suits and sunglasses, eight in total.
The room's tension skyrocketed. With a swift gesture, John’s bodyguards moved in, restraining Justin.
